CHAPTER 15: HER FIRST VISION

Elowyn found herself floating like a ghost, hovering above a stretch of green grass and to make matters worse, it was daylight. The sun was shining so bright and those trees looked very green with those grasses swaying as if they were enjoying the sun’s grace.

If she wasn’t mistaken, it was night already. That’s why she could enjoy the moonlight and not the sunshine. And yet in a matter of seconds, the world had turned upside down. What the heck was going on?

Badum. Badum. Badum.

Her heart was beating nervously as she looked around this strange place where she couldn’t even move.

“What’s happening?” Elowyn asked once again, clenching her fists as she looked around, hoping to find some clues as to why she was in such a state.

However, a few moments after she asked that, something magical happened.

Rustle. Rustle.

“There is something there!” she nervously whispered as she turned in a certain direction with a bunch of trees.

She didn’t know if there were people or animals but whatever it is. As long as she sees something, perhaps she would understand what was happening.

Moments later, a group of people emerged from that side and all of them had one thing in common: they wore familiar cloaks which reminded her of Hazel.

“Are they witches?” she nervously asked herself as that group of cloaked people continued to walk in an organized manner.

She didn’t know where they were going and why they appeared there, but judging by how serious they were, she had an inkling that something was happening. But what was it?

It shouldn’t have anything to do with her, right?

Thinking like that, Elowyn found herself sweating once again. She wasn’t going to die again, right?

She didn’t want to leave this world so soon before she could even avenge herself.

“Are you sure that we will find her in that direction?” However, when one of those cloaked figures suddenly spoke, all her thoughts vanished immediately.

Who were they talking about?

It wasn’t her, right?

“Um, that’s what my crow told me. We just need to follow this path, and we will definitely find her.”

“But ….. isn’t there a faster way to find her than walk around like this as if we are from some primitive era?” another hot-tempered female witch snapped.

“Heh, have you forgotten who we are dealing with? Have you forgotten how many of us suffered under her hands? You want to expose yourself and die before you can even …… don’t start!”

Elowyn, listening to that, started piecing together some puzzle pieces.

This group of witches were hunting someone and whoever they were hunting was very powerful. So powerful that they had to resort to this painful method of tracking her. it was a world of technology and they didn’t even have to walk on their feet.

Even if they were walking in a forest, couldn’t they find those motorbikes?

As witches, there should be a few of them who could teleport, right? If not, why not use the brooms?

Hazel once told her that some of them use them. So why not do them a favor and use what they have?

Anyway, since her ghost body seemed to follow this group of people without any problems, she decided to continue to listen. It seemed like she was brought here to eavesdrop on them, so why not?

As a result, Elowyn indeed followed this group of witches who had different characters but happen to be united when it comes to finding the other powerful witch, they were determined to bring back whether alive or dad.

Days and nights passed, but Elowyn didn’t get a single clue to who they were talking about. She couldn’t even extricate herself from this group. If this was a test of patience from her mentor, then the other party truly found a good way to torture her.

Elowyn followed the group until she started having a bad premonition when a familiar area appeared in her view.

“Isn’t that where we are living right now?” seeing the familiar forest, full of magical trees which loves confusing others, she was stunned.

“Get ready to attack. She should be in there. Remember, we need to be fast. If we let her go again this time, the great witch would have our heads!” the leader of the group sternly ordered the others, and Elowyn watched for the first time how witches operated.

Because she didn’t understand those trees, she barely left the open area where the cave was, where she and Hazel lived. Moreover, she was afraid of the dangers out there that she could face. So, she kept herself in the surrounding areas. Who would have thought that she would get to see what she was seeing in such detail after a moment of meditation?

Thinking like that, Elowyn was suddenly struck with realization.

‘Could this be …… am I getting a vision, right now?’

Everything started making sense. She was a seer and she didn’t even go into her training area and yet she had one fast one pulled on her. If that wasn’t a vision, then what was it?

Upon recognizing what she was seeing, Elowyn became very serious as she watched with earnestness.

From what she learnt; every single detail should be taken seriously. It would be very helpful in preventing whatever disaster that was supposed to come.

This group of witches were definitely coming for Hazel, and whoever sent them wanted Hazel dead. How could she let Hazel suffer like that after she saved her?

Although she might not be able to do anything right now but once she opens her eyes for real, then she might be able to do so.

With that in mind, she continued to watch as these witches burnt to the ground the trees that Hazel had been protecting. No matter how many times the trees tried to defend themselves, they weren’t a match for these cold-blooded witches.

All sorts of spells she had never seen in her entire life were used. From burning, to freezing and uprooting. What did they not do?

They were very organized and seemed to have worked with each other for a very long time. Others fought with the magical trees and creatures, while another group dashed ahead.

Elowyn followed the group that was eager and impatient to find Hazel, with her heart clutched in her hands.

The group found Hazel and it so happened that at the time she was found, Hazel was guarding her.

Looking at the posture that Elowyn was in, it seemed that she was in the middle of meditating. Seeing herself in such a dangerous state and then seeing how these witches were ready to blow Hazel into pieces. Elowyn suddenly felt guilty however, that feeling intensified when she witnessed how Hazel fought with everything that she had while shielding her from any harm.
